"The Witch's Bakery" is an Adventure RPG inspired by Kiki's Delivery Service and Persona 5.🧵
You play as the witch-baker Lunne through her days, each split into 3 phases:
☀️Daytime: working at the bakery.
🌆Evening: exploring Paris.
🌙Night: relaxing at home, learning recipes.
Hello and welcome!
We're very humbled by your kind reactions on our last post! Thank you!☀️
Quick word about us: we're an indie game studio!
We're working on a 2D Adventure game where you play as a joyful witch who opens a bakery in Paris.
We share art, gamedev WIPs and doodles!
As the end of the year closes in, we wanted to share an update!☀️
While it's likely that 50k will not be reached, we still had a talk in the team on how we could depict sex in our cosy PEGI 12 game.
It might sound surprising but it makes sense for us, and here's why!🧵👇

With the release of Sins of the Flesh this week, it's high time we send our sincerest thanks to
@KnightSinclair
and
@cultofthelamb
who helped us more than they'll ever know, allowing our game to be discovered.
Someday, hopefully, we can return the favor.
There will be a lamb.
Artists, show your work that got popular unexpectedly!
=> It was last week. We're still trying to figure out what happened.😅
We just want to say: thank you all for being here with us! We'll do our best to make it worth your while!☀️
Artists, show your work that got popular unexpectedly!
Showing these for the millionth time, I never could have predicted people would like her so much
Just in case it was missed, we made a thread about it:
TL;DR: 50k were not reached but we'll still do it in our own way.
We think that intimacy can be featured in a wholesome way. In fact, it contributes to our goal of depicting human emotions.☀️
Sorry, another post for the French out there!🇫🇷
Tous nos personnages sont français. Tous sont discriminés par le RN.
La France est plurielle et riche par sa diversité. Protégeons-la avec fierté.❤️

@SSujinko
First, thank you for saying 15k is an achievable goal!🥐
The tricky thing with an "achievable" goal is that... we will do it for real.
We already have a romance in the game.
We WILL commit to more if 50k is reached.
Twitter can try us❤️
Love takes many shapes and colors.
Let's come together to celebrate love, self-acceptance, and the beauty of being ourselves!
Happy pride month everyone🌈
As we've been joined by many in the last couple months (welcome!!☀️), we thought we'd do a daily recap about our world and characters!
#1
: This is Lunne, our main character!
She's 21 and just graduated from the magic academy. She wants to bring joy to as many people as she can!
We are aware that people following us have a wide range of different expectations! While we probably can't meet ALL of them, we'll always be open and honest with what we do!
Know that the whole team reads the comments, we'll always be happy to hear your thoughts and ideas!
(6/6)
We are also driven by depicting human relationships in all their facets. Be it friendship, romance or others.
Sex is one facet of adult interactions. While we won't have graphically explicit content, we will not shy away from showing intimacy between characters.

Today marks the 1st anniversary of the 1st level we've ever made! 😮
Back then, the studio had just been officially created and we didn't have a team. We were being helped by friends and freelancers!🙏
Our first teammates would only join in May and here's how it looks today!
Happy

Here it is, our very first test for the game's "walking in Paris" phase!
You can see that we're not quite there yet, but it's alive!☀️
This is a map from our prototype: the Bouquinistes of Paris.♥️📖

We think that intimate interactions can be featured in a warm and cosy way.
If you max Lunne's relationship with Estelle, an option to invite her at night would be available. It would unlock a specific scene.😊

We'll do our best to make it happen!💪
Of course, being an indie studio, it all depends on our means as we're still looking for funding for the game's development.☀️
We've been blown-away by all the love we've received these past weeks, and we'll never thank you enough.❤️

We have discovered a meme thanks to you. 🫣
Had to look on knowyourmeme to figure it out after seeing a couple comments saying that...
This made us feel oooooold.😂
We've crossed 1000 followers on Kickstarter and 5000 wishlists on Steam in just a few days!🎉
Thank you SO much for all the love and messages!🥰
We're trying to reply to everyone, please bear with us! 🙏
If you have any Q or suggestion for the Kickstarter, ping us anytime!👇
Our studio's creative drive is to talk about human emotions.
In our game, we deal with various topics of life, and always in a hopeful way. ☀️
Still, we know that some topics might be too much for young audiences. This is the reason why we won't aim for lower than PEGI 12!
(2/6)
We have heard you and here it is! Our Steam page is finally live!🚀
There's still quite the road ahead before release, but you all are making it the best adventure!❤️
Something else is coming on Thursday~~

In October, we had our very first prototype of the bakery in turn-based!
3 months later, we're now in real-time with Lunne and her team! And we have a new mini-game for Lunne's magic: the Heart Sync! (at 0:23)
#TheWitchsBakery
Hello
#screenshotsaturday
!
We're so excited to show an update on the bakery today!☀️
Can't wait to add more decorations and what if... you could decorate it?🤭
We can also see that one client is "indecisive", and will keep changing their mind at every turn!

UPDATE: We're now making a horror game instead of a cosy game.
This may come as a surprise, but it has been on our minds for some time.
Witches are meant to be dark and scary. It's what everyone wants to see.
Episode 4!
In our universe, Witches and Sorcerers are rare but they are part of society.
They are like astronauts: extraordinary, but not supernatural. Therefore, they often attract smartphones and people’s attention!📸
Mages have a variety of jobs depending on their magic!✨
Recap series, episode 3!
Lunne has an associate, Orio, who is a Sorcerer of Elements.
Orio can manipulate matter and cook in seconds! They replicate Lunne's recipes and create items for clients, while Lunne mixes in her Heart magic!🥐

Today is a big day and we want to celebrate.
After a historical vote, abortion is now a fundamental right of the French constitution.
Our thoughts go to all the people who have believed in a better world, and fought to make it happen.
Thank you so much, from the whole team.☀️
🔴L’inscription de l’IVG dans la Constitution est définitivement adoptée par le Parlement
L’annonce du résutat a été accueillie par une standing ovation dans l’hémicycle.

: This is Lunne, she's our player character!
She's 21 and just graduated from the magic academy. She's a Witch of Heart, but more on that tomorrow...✨
Absolutely never would have believed we'd be 31k today. Thank you all!
How many do you think we'll be at the end of this year?☀️
Let's find out together!
(and 👋 to the 300, we hope you're still around!)
Orio came back to check on the page and 😲!
We've reached 300 right before the new year! We would like to say 300 thank yous!
How many will we be at the end of next year? ☀️
Let's find out together!

I’m looking forward to The Witch’s Bakery ^^
The main character is such a lovely design and I wouldn’t have found out about her if it was not for that silly milestone tweet.

: Lunne is a Witch of Heart. It is one of the three Voices of magic in our universe, along with Cosmos and Elements.
The Voice of Heart is the branch of magic that deals with emotions and feelings. And not only human ones.❤️
Let us say hi to Mawuli!👋
He's a streamer and photography enthusiast, and Mirembe's older step brother.👀
When he heard about a witch opening a bakery, he just had to check it out for his viewers...

We're still early in production, working on our prototype! We are looking for a publisher atm, and we don't have a steam page yet. Busy days every day!
We saw all your messages, thanks for the love. We'll try to reply!🙏
